I'm glad I have the ultrasound pictures of my babies who died in utero. I haven't looked at them in several years but I'm glad I have them.

If those pregnancies had gone to term and I'd lost my babies it would be so much worse and how much more I'd treasure pictures.

In the nineteenth century death pictures were common - just read today about an old house where they found stereopticon (double, 3D) images of all the family members who had died. Photographer came into the parlor where they were laid out.

God bless this photographer in her work of charity.

We have the same, just an ultrasound photo of our child that just didn't make it past 12 weeks.

We have been blessed with two healthy thriving children, but we will never forget the one we lost. And yes, just having the ultrasound picture helps somehow. Maybe if you haven't been through it, you can't really understand.
